Disney seem to be the only company capable of taking stewardship of such huge important characters in a way that keeps fans happy.
They seem to understand that they need to respect the history of the IP and allow the brand to grow in as high quality way possible. Look at Marvel and Star Wars, both huge success stories.
In fact if Disney got Bond, the only mega IP / Brand / Universe I can think of outside of their control would be Harry Potter, and as a huge Harry Potter fan, I’d much rather HP was with Disney than Warner Bros.
I guess, I’m not that big into comic books, most of my exposure has been through cinema and the DC universe movies have overall been very disappointing... Characters like Superman and Batman are up there with the biggest & best of them though.
Who do you think would be a good steward for the DC Universe?
